Empowering Women Through Sacred Dance

For decades, I have led dance workshops for women and men from all walks of life. Along this path, a long-held belief came to light - a belief that confirmed itself over and over again.

Why Dancing in Skirts is Transformative

Dancing is healing, and dancing in skirts is an initiation!

I have seen women – some who haven't worn a skirt in years – blossom into carefree spirits, twirling with confidence and beauty. In the end, they don't want to take the skirts off.

And there's a deeper meaning to it.

Skirts move in a circle, marking the feminine sacred hoop of life.

Circle upon circle, it's a channel to release and uplift, while inviting more healing and balance into your life.

Birth of the Spirit Skirt: Our Signature Creation

I was inspired to create the Spirit Skirt as a pure vessel to help more women dance in beauty and connect deeper with their spiritual practices.

Those in my classes? Well, they quickly claimed the first batch and requested more for their loved ones, too!

Women need their ceremonial wear, and the response was overwhelmingly positive.

Our Ethical Foundation

But if my husband Nando and I were to start a collection, we wanted to do it right.

• Ethically made
• Sustainable
• Spiritually uplifting
• Culturally appreciative

We're passionate supporters and facilitators of indigenous communities and their wisdom. The collection involves the fair trade with master beaders, weavers and seamstresses from Colombia, Bhutan and Bali. Our collaboration supports their sacred designs as a living testament of ancient earth-based artistry.

Expanding the Earth Wisdom Family

Serendipitous meetings with gracious mentors and collaborators illuminated the line of Earth Wisdom Collection, including world renowned designer Erika Peña and slow fashion trailblazer Myrah Peñaloza. Getting feedback from our community was essential to our growth.

The Kids & Teen Collections

Many women in my workshops wanted to share the Spirit Skirt experience with their daughters. They understood the importance of starting rites and rituals early, to protect and prepare their spirits for what is to come in womanhood.

This profound insight led to the creation of our Kids Collection and Teen Collection.

The Men's Collection

The queens and their daughters were dressed, but we couldn't forget about the kings. Thus, out of necessity, the Men's Collection was born.

Our Gratitude and Vision

Looking back at our many years on this path, we couldn't be happier with how the Earth Wisdom Collection came to be. We're honored to create quality pieces that reflect the beauty of our shared humanity and the wisdom of Mother Earth.

We hope you feel the heart, soul, and pure intentions poured into each piece.

We sincerely thank you for being on this journey with us. We remain open and eager to see how it continues to unfold!

Blessings,

Kathi & Nando
